Thanks for adding me as a friend. I don't know if I mentioned this before but it was actually you who told me about BAP via LinkedIn.

I'm glad that BAP is being recognized by the greater NYC arts community. You and Anthony have provided an invaluable networking tool for New York artists and for that I am very grateful and wish BAP further growth and success.

The Tower of the Empire State Building bisects the Arch in Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza.

Landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted and architect Calvert Vaux created the framework for this continuing work-in-progress as the Civil War ended, 25 years before the Arch, 65 years before the Tower, 105 years before the Mirador, and 145 years before I stumbled across it.

In starting the “Grand Army Plaza” group here at Brooklyn Arts Project, I hope to share ideas on how to raise public awareness to protect and promote this View as an “historic visual corridor.” Building Six of Atlantic Yards threatens to eclipse the view.
